What a waste! I was really looking forward to trying this product for filling cupcakes, but it just did not work. First of all, the diameter was huge, way too big for a normal size cupcake. Second, once you made the hole, the directions for getting the cupcake piece to come out just did not do the trick. We followed the directions, but all they were successful in doing was cracking the delicious cupcake. How very disappointing. I suppose it would be useful for filling some large cavity with a solid filling, but not the cream that I had made. I ended up using the plunger for shaping the "hole" and a spoon for removing the cupcake divot.

Guess I will try the cuisipro version.

I was really excited to use this but it just doesn't work =( It doesn't seperate the cake and you end up damaging the cupcake trying to get it to work right. Knife is easier...

This product should have been slightly thinner in it's cylinder shape, because for every day size (at home) cupcakes, it simply creates too large of a hole. It almost takes out the whole cupcake. For giant size muffins it should work good. I haven't used it yet, because it's a little large for the size I'm going for.
